-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] ECIS 2014 -- Call for Track Proposals -- Deadline February 15, 2013 Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:53:10 +0000 From: Schultze, Ulrike <uschultz(a)mail.cox.smu.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Track Proposals ECIS 2014 - Deadline February 15, 2013 The 22nd European Conference on Information Systems ECIS 2014 June 9-11, 2014, Tel Aviv, Israel www.ecis2014.eu<http://www.ecis2014.eu> (coming soon) Conference Theme: Digital Work, Digital Life Building on the theme “Digital Work, Digital Life,” ECIS 2014 seeks to make the exploration of the opportunities and challenges associated with increasing digitalization in both our work and everyday lives a key focus. The theme evokes a wide range of research areas, for example, digital innovation and design, mobility-leveraging and location-based business models, big data analytics, and many more. We hereby invite members of the IS community to propose tracks for ECIS 2014. Track Proposals for ECIS 2014 -- Due February 15, 2013 Track proposals should provide a motivation for the track, a brief overview of the research area, sample topics, types of contributions welcomed, and an assessment of the overall appeal to conference attendees. Specifically, track proposals should include: 1) A title for the conference track 2) Names, e-mail addresses, affiliations, phone numbers, website URLs, and short bios of the two to three track co-chairs. Please designate one of the co-chairs as the primary contact person. 3) A short description of the track and its focus: define the proposed area of research, explain why it is important to include it as an ECIS conference track, and discuss the topics the track will address and how they align with the ECIS 2014 conference theme “Digital Work, Digital Life”. 4) A discussion on what types of contributions are sought for: full research papers, research in progress papers, prototypes and technology demonstrations. Please note: ECIS 2014 will have a separate track for teaching cases. 5) A list of tentative Associate Editors for the proposed track (between 5 and 15). Please provide names and affiliations, and indicate whether you have secured their commitment to serving as AEs for your track. 6) Any additional information relevant to the evaluation of the track proposal, e.g., the track co-chairs’ prior experience with organizing tracks at other academic conference. Please submit your track proposals to ecis2014(a)gmail.com<mailto:ecis2014@gmail.com> by February 15, 2013. Track Proposal Evaluation Once the track proposals are received, they will be reviewed by an evaluation committee that consists of the ECIS 2014 conference and program chairs. This committee will base its acceptance decisions on the overall merit of the track proposal, the diversity of the track team and the track’s fit with the conference theme. With the objective of creating an interesting program that will attract participants from diverse geographic regions and a broad range of the intellectual sub-fields of IS, the ECIS 2014 evaluation committee will seek to balance the more traditional IS topics with emerging areas of interest. To this end, the committee might ask proposers to revise their track proposals. Additionally, if the overlap between proposals is high, the committee might encourage track proposers to join forces and merge their tracks in order to obtain the best possible coverage of topics and the best mix of track chairs. Notifications of track proposal acceptance will be sent out in the latter half of March 2013. Responsibilities of Track Chairs The submission of ECIS 2014 track proposal implies that pending acceptance the prospective co-chairs agree to the following track chair responsibilities: 1) Promote the track and take sufficient measures to solicit an adequate number of submissions. 2) Organize a peer review cycle for the papers submitted to their track assisted by a set of Associate Editors. Track chairs will need to recruit associate editors who will then identify two/three reviewers for each submission they are assigned. AEs will also write a summary review report and make a recommendation on a submission’s acceptance to ECIS 2014. The reviewing process will be supported by an electronic submission and reviewing system. 3) Propose to the program committee the papers that will eventually be accepted for inclusion into the conference program; and nominate papers for the best paper award 4) Create an attractive track program by clustering papers into sessions; and secure session chairs. 5) Liaise with the research chairs on all other matters that concern ECIS 2014. We look forward to receiving your ECIS 2014 track proposals!

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] Electronic Commerce Research -- SI on Advances in Security and Privacy for Future Mobile Communications -- DEADLINE EXTENDED Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 22:07:58 +0100 From: Gregorio Martinez <gregorio(a)um.es> Organization: "ICCSA" To: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Electronic Commerce Research (http://www.springer.com/business+management/business+information+systems/jo…) Editor-in-Chief: Prof. Bezalel Gavish Special Issue on Advances in Security and Privacy for Future Mobile Communications (Journal Citation Reports/Social Sciences Edition 2011 Impact Factor: 0.971) Without doubt, the advances in wireless communication technologies like 3G, WiFi, WiMax and the proliferation of mobile devices have enabled the realization of pervasive and intelligent environments for users to communicate with each other, interact with information processing devices, and acquire ubiquitously a plethora of mobile services through various types of wireless access networks. Under this prism, reliable, secure, and privacy preserving communications combined with constant and universal network availability, are vital elements for the adoption of any application that utilize wireless technologies. This becomes even more apparent when considering the tight coupling of these wireless network domains to the Internet. Every day new security challenges come to the surface due to the open nature of the wireless medium, the dynamic network topology, the resource constraints of the mobile devices and, in some cases, the lack of a pre-deployed infrastructure. This special issue aims to advance state-of-the-art research in the area of security, privacy, cryptography, and its applications for Future Mobile Communications (FMC). In this context, it will address all aspects of the modeling, designing, implementation, assessment, deployment and management of mobile network security and privacy systems, protocols and architectures. We particularly seek for original, completed and high quality contributions to the evaluation, enhancement of security and privacy mechanisms for current mobile technologies as well as novel designs for efficient security and privacy solutions of emerging mobile and wireless technologies. We expect that the special issue will stimulate further related research and technology improvements in this significant subject. Suggested topics include but are not restricted to: - Security issues and protocols in FMC - Network security metrics and performance evaluation in FMC - Privacy and anonymity in FMC - IMS security and privacy issues - Authentication and access control in FMC - Secure AAA infrastructures in FMC - Intrusion detection and avoidance in FMC - Trust establishment, negotiation, and management in FMC - Threat and vulnerability modeling in FMC - Attack analysis and digital forensics in FMC - Secure and privacy preserving handover mechanisms - Denial of service in FMC - Key distribution and management in FMC - Secure cooperation in wireless networks - Cryptographic protocols and lightweight cryptography in FMC - Secure Multicast/Broadcast Service in FMC - Key agreement and identity based protocols - Secure and privacy preserving mobile location services - Cross Layer approach to security - Secure and privacy preserving applications and services in FMC - Security of mesh networks - Privacy and Security Compliance - Reputation-based systems in FMC - Piracy issues and preventions in FMC Schedule Manuscript submission deadline: February 15, 2013 (EXTENDED) Pre-notification (first round): March 15, 2013 Final-notification (second round): June 15, 2013 Submission of final revised paper: September 15, 2013 Publication of special issue (Online): 2014 (Tentative) All received submissions will be sent out for peer review by at least two experts in the field and evaluated with respect to relevance to the special issue, level of innovation, depth of contributions, and quality of presentation.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: Special Issue of JVLC on Representations and Environments for User-Driven Development of Service Applications
by Gustaf Neumann 22 Dec '12

22 Dec '12

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: Special Issue of JVLC on Representations and Environments for User-Driven Development of Service Applications Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 21:13:01 -0000 From: Nikolay Mehandjiev <mehandjiev(a)gmail.com> To: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL for PAPERS Special Issue of Journal of Visual Languages and Computing Representations and Environments for User-Driven Development of Service Applications Guest Editors: Nikolay Mehandjiev and Antonella De Angeli Full Manuscript due: February 28th, 2013 Service-oriented software (SoS) is focused on delivering software on demand – the software gets assembled into service applications at the point of need, delivered, executed and then discarded. Two simplified manifestations of this idea are quite popular today: the mobile phone apps which offer focused functionality and are delivered to the mobile phones on request, and service-based software, which researches dynamic composition of distributed services, without focusing on the actual delivery of the assembled software. The engagement of end users in the process of developing service-based applications is a key enabler of the vision of SoS with its dynamic nature and focus on the needs of their users. This highlights an immediate problem with the existing environment and tools for assembling services into service applications – they are still too focused on the underlying technology such as event processing or data flow, and are thus often incomprehensible for people without formal training in software development which are the majority of the target users of the system. This is confirmed by our studies, which highlight the difficulties users have with the concepts of data passing between services and the need for this data to be aligned for better processing. The proposed special issue will consolidate the work done in the intersection of service development and End User Development, an area of research which aims to empower users who are not professional programmers to develop or modify software. This intersection has been the subject of three international workshops (www.eud4services.org) which helped us build an international community working in the area. The proposed special issue will build on the work presented in the workshops, soliciting archival-quality contributions from that community but also encouraging further submissions from the wider EUD and Services Communities. This first of its kind special issue will focus on the intersection of interaction design, end user development and services computing. Papers will be solicited in the following areas (the list is indicative rather than exclusive): • Design or evaluations of graphical tools to support end-user development of service-based applications; • Studies of mental models used by users for service development; • Cognitive or behavioural theories and models of users’ problem-solving when developing service-driven applications; • Proposals for simpler and user-centric interfaces or environments; • The place of domain-specific tools for user-driven composition of service applications; • The role of personalisation in delivering effective user-oriented environments; • Impact of context-customisation on the simplification of tools and representations; • The role of service semantics for providing better support within EUD4Services environments; • The place of collaborative development within user-driven assembly of services. Key Dates: Please send an email with a short abstract or statement of intent to Nikolay Mehandjiev (mailto:mehandjiev@gmail.com), by January 15, 2012. Complete manuscripts should be emailed before February 28, 2013. Every paper will be blind reviewed for rigour, contribution and relevance by three experts. First round results will be sent to authors by June 1 2013. Revisions will be due August 1 2013. Final publication decisions will be made by October 15 2013. Publication: February 2014 The Journal of Visual Languages and Computing is a forum for researchers, practitioners, and developers to exchange ideas and results for the advancement of visual languages and its implication to the art of computing. The journal publishes research papers, state-of-the-art surveys, and review articles in all aspects of visual languages.

Fwd: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2013 Mini-Track CFP: Negative Cognitions about Information Systems
by Gustaf Neumann 21 Dec '12

21 Dec '12

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2013 Mini-Track CFP: Negative Cognitions about Information Systems Datum: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 20:08:27 +0000 Von: Lockwood, Nick <LockwoodN(a)mst.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers: 19th Americas Conference on Information Systems August 15-17, 2013, Chicago, IL USA Dear Colleagues, We welcome papers for the mini track titled "NEGATIVE COGNITIONS ABOUT INFORMATION SYSTEMS", for AMCIS 2013. Details follow: Track: HUMAN COMPUTER INTERACTION Mini Track Title: NEGATIVE COGNITIONS ABOUT INFORMATION SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION There is an increasingly persistent dichotomy in the way that emerging Information Systems (IS)-enabled patterns for work and collaboration are affecting IS users. On the one hand, they enable vast improvements in processes and decisions. On the other, they lead to negative cognitions and outcomes such as stress, frustrations and information overload. There has been a recent surge of interest in negative cognitions associated with using IS related, for example, to technostress, intrusiveness and deceptiveness, credibility and deception, addiction to technology use, and distrust. These studies explore various facets of detrimental conditions that users of IS experience---conditions that, given the ubiquity of IS use, are potentially pervasive. The objective of this mini-track is to develop theoretical insight and understanding on HCI topics and issues that address this "troubling" side of IS. Submissions addressing all aspects of this topic are welcome. We welcome conceptual, theoretical or empirical research papers. We particularly welcome papers that apply theories and perspectives from different disciplines (e.g., theories of stress from psychology, information overload and interruption from information science, and work-life balance from industrial management) to examine various aspects of this phenomenon. Suggested Topics: Suggested topics include, but are not limited to, the following: 1. Implications for design of systems and interfaces regarding: Conceptualizations of troubling or negative interactions between IS and users, such as interruptions, information overload, constant connectivity to work-related information processing, addiction to IS use, and difficulties in learning how to use constantly changing technologies and applications. 2. Implications for design of systems and interfaces regarding: Outcomes from the above interactions such as stress, difficulty in concentrating, multitasking, user dissatisfaction, effects on productivity and performance, disruption of work-life balance, over-dependence on IS. 3. Any other HCI topics related to negative affective responses and the cause and effect relationships between cues embedded in system designs and/or methods that can mitigate or exacerbate those negative responses.

A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topics. The acceptance of a position paper is restricted to the categories of "short paper" or "poster". Please check further details about position papers submission at the conference website (http://www.webist.org/). The conference will be technically sponsored by the European Research Center for Information Systems (ERCIS), sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC) and Co-organized by the RWTH Aachen University. INSTICC is Member of the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) and Object Management Group (OMG). WEBIST is interested in promoting high quality research as it can be confirmed by last year acceptance rates, where from 184 submissions, 14% were accepted as full papers. Additionally, 31% were presented as short papers and 17% as posters. Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in a LNBIP Series book. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP and EI (Elsevier Index). Best paper awards will be distributed during the conference closing session. Please check the website for further information (http://www.webist.org/BestPaperAward.aspx). All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/). We also would like to highlight the possibility to submit to the following Special Sessions: - Special Session on Business Apps - BA 2013 (http://www.webist.org/BA.aspx) - Socio-technical Dynamics in Information Systems - STDIS 2013 (http://webist.org/STDIS.aspx) - GRAph-based Modeling and Matching in the Web - GraW 2013 (http://www.webist.org/GRAW.aspx) Workshops, Special sessions, Tutorials as well as Demonstrations dedicated to other technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to facilitate the development of a valid idea. The conference program features a number of Keynote Lectures to be delivered by distinguished world-class researchers, including those listed below. Please check further details at the WEBIST conference website (http://www.webist.org/). Should you have any question please don't hesitate contacting me.

Fwd: [wkwi] Call for Papers - AMCIS 2013 Minitrack & BPMJ Special Issue: "NewFrontiers in Business Process Management"
by Gustaf Neumann 21 Dec '12

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [wkwi] Call for Papers - AMCIS 2013 Minitrack & BPMJ Special Issue: "NewFrontiers in Business Process Management" Datum: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 10:39:58 +0100 (CET) Von: Müller Oliver <Oliver.Mueller(a)uni.li> Antwort an: postmaster(a)idefix.buva.sowi.uni-bamberg.de CALL FOR PAPERS ################################################################################## AMCIS 2013 Minitrack & BPMJ Special Issue: "New Frontiers in Business Process Management" ################################################################################## Business processes management (BPM) is a management approach that has its roots in a range of practices, such as Kaizen, TQM, and BPR. It makes use of methods and tools dedicated to the identification, documentation, improvement, implementation, and execution of organizational processes. Although BPM has been a popular topic for decades, the field is still evolving. Current technological developments and environmental pressures extend the reach and richness of BPM beyond its traditional frontiers. Considering the reach of BPM, the growing importance of alliances and networks requires end-to-end business processes to be managed across multiple organizations. The roles of employees and customers also change, evolving to more active initiators and participants of process improvement endeavors. Organizations that previously refrained from adopting a systematic approach to manage their operations finally turn to BPM methods and technologies as well. Regarding the richness of BPM, new methods and tools are proposed that help organizations with the successful adoption of BPM. Current web-based technologies may increase the involvement of internal and external stakeholders and reduce organizational inertia. Improved analysis functionality like process mining can leverage organizational learning. This mini-track intends to serve as a platform for research on these current trends in BPM. We invite contributions from disciplines including information systems, information management, computer and management science to properly cover all current discussions on possible advancements to business process management. Boundary-spanning research that connects BPM with other than the named disciplines is also welcome. Potential topics of interest are, but are not limited to: Extending the reach of BPM - BPM in new or previously less-covered domains (e.g., non-for-profit organizations, healthcare organizations and public administrations) - Management of new or previously less-covered types of business processes (e.g., semi- or unstructured processes, knowledge- and information-intensive processes, creative processes) - Inter-organizational BPM - Green BPM - Adoption and adaptation of BPM (X-aware BPM) Extending the richness of BPM - Positive process deviance and organizational learning - Process mining - Process repository management - Process innovation management - Real-time BPM - Mobile computing and BPM - Cloud computing and BPM - Open-source BPM software - Case management - Web-based process modeling and process registries - Collaboration and participation in BPM - Social BPM - Gamification in BPM Submission Deadline: Fri, Feb 22, 2013 More Information: http://amcis2013.aisnet.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=75… Business Process Management Journal (BPMJ) Special Issue: We arranged a corresponding special issue on "New Frontiers in Business Process Management" with the Business Process Management Journal (BPMJ). Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their manuscript for this special issue for fast track consideration. The call for papers for the special issue is available here: http://www.emeraldinsight.com/products/journals/call_for_papers.htm?id=4382.
